645.72

645.72 Distribution of assets.

645.72(1)

(1) Payments to creditors. Subject to ch. 646 and under the direction of the court, the liquidator shall pay dividends as promptly as possible to security funds under sub. (2) and to other creditors in a manner that will assure the proper recognition of priorities and a reasonable balance between the expeditious completion of the liquidation and the protection of unliquidated and undetermined claims, including 3rd-party claims. Distribution of assets in kind may be made at valuations set by agreement between the liquidator and the creditor and approved by the court.

645.72(2)

(2) Payment of dividends to security funds. The liquidator shall pay dividends to security funds under sub. (1) to satisfy their subrogation claims under s. 646.33 or similar laws of other states, if the claims have been filed pursuant to rules established under s. 645.61 (4). The total dividends to security funds paid under this subsection may not exceed the total of the claims properly made by the funds under s. 645.61 (4). The liquidator shall pay dividends as frequently as practicable and in sums as large as possible without sacrificing of asset values by untimely disposition or inequitable allocation of available assets among the subrogated funds. The liquidator may protect against inequitable allocations by making payments to funds subject to binding agreements by the funds to repay any portions of the dividends found later to be in excess of an equitable allocation. If assets are available, the liquidator may also lend to security funds, subject to court approval.

645.72(3)

(3) Reports to the court. The liquidator shall report to the court within 120 days after the issuance of the liquidation order under s. 645.42, and every 3 months thereafter, on the status of the assets and the payment of dividends and loans under sub. (2). The court may order the liquidator to pay dividends to security funds under sub. (2) more expeditiously to minimize the need for assessments under s. 646.51.

645.72(4)

(4) Excess assets.

645.72(4)(a)

(a) Upon liquidation of a domestic mutual insurance company, any assets held in excess of its liabilities and the amounts which may be paid to its members as provided under sub. (4) (b) shall be paid into the state treasury to the credit of the common school fund.

645.72(4)(b)

(b) The maximum amount payable upon liquidation to any member for and on account of his or her membership in a domestic mutual insurance company, in addition to the insurance benefits promised in the policy, shall be the total of all premium payments made by the member with interest at the legal rate compounded annually.
